>scald now is super-effective on ice types
>>24920482
Lapras with freeze-day and scald goes straight to ubers.

Here for icefag meltdowns
Water is already hotter than ice. Hot water is not as hot as fire. It's still cool enough to remain a liquid.
>>24920502
Steam Eruption is super-effective on ice types
yes, let's make scald even better than it already is and ice even worse than it already is, i'm sure that's a great idea

>Scald and Stream Eruption turn ice types into water types on contact
>>24920493
I see what you did there.
>>24920482
>drought, sunny day, and desolate land turn all water attacks into steam eruption without decreasing/nullifying its damage
How does the meta change?
>freeze status is retconned from preventing movement into a status that makes the afflicted pokemon mono-ice
>>24920547
That's stupid, ice-type pokemon aren't all literally made of ice.
>>24920482
Lapras is awfully smug about that statement.
>>24921573
smug pepe/lapras when?

Now that's just cruel

by nature of being a dual Water/Ice-type, Lapras cannot learn Scald. Its water powers naturally run on the colder side of the spectrum, whereas Pokémon like Simipour (the Geyser Pokémon) produce hotter water naturally.

Watch your edges m8
They probably would do something like that. Water type is GF's baby.

>Steam Eruption becomes a tm
Distribution is mostly grass types
>>24920502
but Scald is boiling water, so its exactly 100C
>>24920482
Nobody uses ice-types anyway, so nothing of value was lost...

ah yes, I'll remember that next time I use keldeo
>>24920482
Scald should be super effective on ice, steel, and grass types; do 30% more damage to rock and ground; and ignore sturdy for flavor because it's so hot
>>24920490
Water/ice types dont learn scald anon
Freeze is now a condition that halves Special Attack and gives a 1/3 chance to prevent the victim attacking each round.
